In this Vol.2, we will send you an interview about snowboarding and skateboarding, family and lifestyle for him.

What do Snowboarding and Skateboarding mean to Mr. Ueda?

What was skateboarding in old skateboarding magazines?I feel like I said "life" when I was asked, but skateboarding is the energy that keeps me alive as Go Ueda, and I myself.Self-expression, self-produce, play that maximizes and makes the most of it, and vehicles.
There are fathers of children who teach skateboarding and executives of big companies, but I think it would be great if I could take skateboarding from me and show my energy and sales force in other industries. He says he should make about XNUMX million.I see a lot of people like that, so they tell me that, but the words I return are, "I'm made because of skateboarding, so I have to make money and support my family. But I can never do other work. "

Skateboarding is something that makes the most of you, and it's also something that you can't lie to.I don't want to lie when I sell things, I don't buy bad things, but I don't want to sell bad things either.I'll do my best in the demonstration, and it's the same in sales and MC. It's a position of "cutting out = telling a lie".

I think skateboarding and snowboarding are completely different.Of course there is a similar feeling.Snowboarding is a feeling that you can take the feelings and understandings you have cultivated in skateboarding to another dimension by further removing your limits.

From the March 2014 issue of FREERUN Cooperation: FREE RUN  

You can't get the speed and height of a snowboard with a skateboard, and because the opponent is natural, the weather suddenly gets worse and you fall into whiteout, and you get into a different dimension where there is no sound at all. , Sometimes it's filled up to the chest with powder.

Yeah! he is always trying to challenging. Nice work!

Do it on a skateboard!Unfortunately, I already know all the situations. I already know what I feel and what I have to do to get into the 20-dan handrail.If you look at the skate park, you will immediately know how to skate.
However, snowboarding is a situation of groping one by one, so I don't know anything yet, so a different dimension is also a different dimension with such a dangerous meaning, and when I first encountered skateboarding, "It's so much fun!" "What should I do?" It's an important thing that reminds us of the feeling of "should I do this?"

Yeah Go! Everyone respecting him cause he has strong spirit and actions.

Mr. Ueda has an image of being masculine and having a clear line, but what about your family?

I feel sorry for my family.I think I went out with my son on Saturdays and Sundays about XNUMX-XNUMX times a year.It feels like a dad who isn't on weekends.It's basically a nuisance to my family.I mean I'm taking the brunt, I'm taking on the challenge, or I'm in parentheses.It feels like I'm keeping my style against the situation where my family is on my back and always looking forward and coming into my visuals.How did I imagine each day and put it in parentheses, and did I work properly today?Or did today's event go around?I'm always thinking about it.

In that sense, I think of myself first, but when I go outside, I hit people in a good way, so it's always a serious game.
Even this interview.Seriously collide and express yourself.Looking at it in total, I'm making money.That's why I have another self and I always check myself closely.

After Family snowboarding trip, back yard was always like this. Messy? NO. This is on of great life scene.

What will your family do when you get tired and tired of working hard?

When I'm really tired and come home, my family can tell by looking at my face, so my son says, "Hey, I'm tired, daddy," and "I think I'm tired, so go to bed early." He gives me warm words.But I'm often exhausted and just fall asleep on the sofa and get woken up by my son the next morning.

By the way, did you go abroad on a family trip?

Actually, even though I got married XNUMX years ago, I couldn't go on my honeymoon, but XNUMX years ago, my family went on an overseas trip to Thailand for the first time.My son was delighted to be able to show his children a lot of different things.In places where food and culture are different, the whole family is worried about "what to do with rice?" Or "how to get there?"My son's facial expression at that time is completely different from usual.Children know what to do in Japan.

When I went to Singapore, it was expensive, but when I stayed at Marina Bay Sands, my kids were really interested in things like "Daddy! I know this! It's a SMAP commercial!"
Money is also "Daddy, you sell this in Japan? But it's expensive. It's cheap in Japan." "Do you know why it's expensive? This is Japanese. That's why it's imported from Japan. The skateboards sold in Japan will be more expensive than overseas, "and the conversations increased, and I was able to let my children experience various things.
That's why you can be even when you go abroad with your family.I'm the one who pays, but everyone is there so I think I can enjoy it and relax next to the pool (laughs)


Is there a lifestyle you are aiming for?

I love thrills.I think it's okay to be rich, but if you can't attack with that, you don't have to be rich.Also, I think the existence of a company is "great" these days.For example, I noticed that there was a large company, a subsidiary, a subcontractor, and many people were involved.That's why I can't do it alone, so I think it's wonderful to get together and make money.

Shredder Snowmobile Rider, Atsushi Goto was taking care of us. Snowmobile was MONSTER! Of course ATSUSHI as well!

But Go Ueda is a skateboarder called "Go Ueda" and I want to be a specialist for people who eat on skateboards. I'm just thinking about skateboarding XNUMX hours a day, and I don't mind getting a phone call or picking up merchandise late at night.I'm rather happy.But I can't say that if you welcome someone as a member, you can do the same for that person.So I realized that in a good way it's like a wolf wandering around where there's an area that welcomes you gently.

Also, when the store is in need, I want to be the one I need, like I should ask Go Ueda if something goes wrong, and I hope I can continue to do that.That's why I'm alone, but I'm not alone.

Went riding with Skaters. 

laterRediNobu said that I really sympathized with him,
For me, "good food" is the food that you eat around with the friends who called me there when you went to a distant place.
Living in a good place means living in a place where you can easily go snowboarding or move easily because you have a skateboard nearby.
Wearing good clothes isn't about wearing clothes that cost tens of thousands of yen or hundreds of thousands of yen, but clothes made by my friends, sunglasses, and the brands of friends who bothered to give me gifts. Clothes, that's what it means to wear good clothes for me.
I want to keep feeling that it is the best.

And I want to keep attacking as long as my body keeps moving.

Finally, please give a few words to those who are watching SBN.

I want you to do skateboarding first.The reason is that by doing this, you will be able to move your body all year round, which should definitely be useful for snowboarding.
Also, I hate studying.Therefore, I often give up immediately.But snowboarding wasn't the only one.

Shrimp tail?Katasha?Bittery turn?structure?The North Face?Pisten?Sonde?Slav?Seppi?pack?Romaine de multi?shoot?Sawa?bivouac?debris?Skiers left?locker?

I'm not studying snowboarding.But I'm curious about what I like and I naturally remember it.It's not a big head that I remembered hard when I saw a magazine.You go directly to the mountains and ask and experience your friends and get into your head.
An insatiable pursuit of what you like, a fun and profound snowboard with too many discoveries, just like the SK8, which is more than enough to absorb knowledge like a sponge.In that sense, I think it's more special than skateboarding and surfing.

Spring snowboarding? If you want, Okudtadami is the one for sure. Locals are always looking after me.

So, in order to get that kind of knowledge, there is nothing you can do without someone who has that knowledge, so be sure to go to a nearby pro shop.It may be uneasy to hit the door at first, but if you can keep going and communicate, it will teach you a lot, and you will surely have a wonderful experience, experience and information exchange.
By building such a realistic environment by yourself, you should be able to enjoy snowboarding in a real place.
